Introduction to Fluidization - AIChE
CEP November 2014 21 Back to BasicsFluidized-bed processes have operated commercially since the 1920s, beginning with the advent of the Winkler coal gasifier in Germany. Fluidized catalytic cracking units (FCCUs) for the production of high-octane gasoline and fluidized-bed reactors for making phthalic anhydride debuted in the 1940s. Today, about three-quarters of all polyolefins are made by a fluidized-bed process. The development of a specialized zeolite catalyst for cracking heavy oil into various fractions enabled the com-mercialization of the FCC circulating fluidized bed. In this process, oil is injected into a riser, and the feedstock and catalyst flow upward. As the oil is cracked, a layer of coke (a high-molecular-weight carbonaceous material) builds up on the catalyst, deactivating the catalyst in a matter of seconds.
Nov 21, 2014 · nitrile processes, also employ catalysts that have a Group A behavior. Most particles used in fluidized beds are Geldart Group A powders. Geldart Group B. These particles have a particle size range of 150 μm to 1,000 μm. Group B particles tend not to undergo smooth fluidization, and bubbles form at the onset of fluidization.
